Do sit-stand desks need to be anchored to the wall to prevent tipping?

Commercial-grade sit-stand desks don't require wall anchoring — their wide, heavy base frame provides enough stability to prevent tipping during normal use, even at full standing height with a loaded surface. Wall anchoring is generally only needed in seismic zones or if the desk is in a location where children might push or climb on it. Most manufacturers explicitly design against tip-over without anchoring as part of their structural testing.
